There is such vibrant beauty, a dawning of life during late March. The burst of spring as daffodils bloom and bluebirds flit. Cool mornings unfold into bright and warmer afternoons. The earth is gently awakening from its long winter nap.
How I enjoy a deep spring cleaning this time of year: baseboards, cupboards, cabinets, closets. Anything seems possible once the gray days have fled and the slanted sun shimmers into the early evening hours.

I am away from my desk this week, savoring extra moments with my family. This month is a tender time for my mother-heart, as we say goodbye to our son, Jacob, who is leaving for a lengthy missionary journey, and hello to our second grandbaby due next month.
Big changes all at once require a quiet spring cleaning for my soul.
So I will leave you today with a little something. An invitation to listen to a Moody Radio conversation I recently recorded and greatly enjoyed.
May it serve to encourage you to go and share the treasure of Christ with others, today, right where God has planted you.
I am grateful for this recent review of my second book, Deep Roots, Good Fruit.

Kristin, I read what you wrote about your son, Jacob, and his two year mission to evangelize in Europe. Our daughter and her husband and three children are missionaries in the Czech Republic. It is a dark and difficult place as most are atheists there…but God! He is raising up a new generation of His people. One by one, they are seeing young people saved and growing in the grace and knowledge of Christ! Thank you for the list of things to pray for Jacob and his team. I will pray for him. I would so appreciate your prayers for my daughter, her husband, and their family and team in the same way. (Julie and Adam)
Thank you so much dear sister in Christ for your encouragement in Christ and your gentle and quiet spirit that is precious to God and to us, your readers.
Kind regards, Elaine
